错误：尝试运行 npm 时找不到模块“C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\npm\bin\node_modules\npm\bin\npm-cli.js”

Question

I am trying to run npm install from the cmd in a windows environment. The following error occurs:

internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:905
  throw err;
  ^

Error: Cannot find module 'C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\npm\bin\node_modules\npm\bin\npm-cli.js'
    at Function.Module._resolveFilename (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:902:15)
    at Function.Module._load (internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:746:27)
    at Function.executeUserEntryPoint [as runMain] (internal/modules/run_main.js:76:12)
    at internal/main/run_main_module.js:17:47 {
  code: 'MODULE_NOT_FOUND',
  requireStack: []
}

Is there a reason why \node_modules\npm\bin\ repeats within the file path? I've set the environmental variables to:

C:\Program Files\nodejs\node_modules\npm\bin

and to:

C:\Program Files\nodejs\

Is there a solution to fix this issue so that I can run the npm commands?

Answer 1

Copy the directory named npm from your installed node path (In my case the npm directory was available in C:\\Program Files\\nodejs\\node_modules ).

Navigate to C:\\Users\\%USERNAME%\\AppData\\Roaming\\npm\\node_modules and paste the copied npm directory there.

this should work.

Answer 2

在终端中运行此行，它应该可以工作;-) 祝你好运！

SET PATH=C:\Program Files\Nodejs;%PATH%

Answer 3

I was getting this error after installing with nvm for Windows: https://github.com/coreybutler/nvm-windows .

I just reinstalled Node in Git Bash instead of PowerShell.
